I can see several error messages similar to that in the code, each warning of a different error condition, but I don't see that exact message.
Please check the exact wording of the message so that I can look up what error condition it is referring to.

Do you mean that all users of the computer share the same log-in? If that's the case, then I don't think there's any way that you make the other users close their projects. If you, or any of your colleagues have any experience programming in C / C++, then it would be possible to make a custom build ...

OK, and I'm guessing that if you right click on the file (in Windows), select "Properties" and then "details", you will see most of the metadata (last time I looked, Windows could not read all of the tags, but got most of them). I also expect that if you use a good audio player (...

Try this:
1) Do whatever steps are necessary to produce the problem
2) Close Audacity
3) Restart Audacity
4) Look in the Metadata Editor and check that the metadata is empty
5) Import the problem file.
6) Open the Metadata Editor

At step 6, is the metadata present or absent?

If you can at least borrow a computer temporarily, you could try running EasyWorship and Audacity on separate machines. If the problem doesn't happen, then it's very likely that the cause has been correctly identified.

It doesn't seem to be a "throttling" issue, the sample rate appears to switch cleanly from 44100 to 48000. Here I have split the track at approximately the time of the sample rate change, then changed the sample rate of the latter section to 48000, then mixed down the two parts into this c...

One easy way to remove unnecessary header information is by opening the file in Audacity and exporting it as “WAV (Microsoft) signed 16-bit PCM.” If you simply import a file and then export it, Audacity will remove any "Album Art" metadata (because Audacity does not support Album Art), bu...

By default Audacity imports all WAV files as 32-bit float. This allows Audacity to process audio in extremely high quality, and avoids permanent damage if processing pushes the peak level over 0 dB (32-bit float supports amplitudes over 0 dB, but you should always bring the level back down under 0 d...

The current version of Audacity is 2.2.2, which is available here: https://www.audacityteam.org/download/ You can set up a "Chain" of effects, but be aware that for best results it is usually best to tweak each effect for the specific recording that you are processing. There's no getting a...

For some reason your audio device is switching from 44100 Hz sample rate to 48000 Hz sample rate. This is not an Audacity issue (Audacity is a dumb "client" application that accepts whatever it is given by the computer sound system). Are any other programs running on the computer while you...
